All in the Family featured the curmudgeonly Archie Bunker. Archie was television’s most famous grouch, blunt, blustering, straightforward and untouched by the PC crowd. He was the archetype of the conservative male. Michael desprately tried to reeducate him, but he persisted in his breviloquence.

Looking back at the last 40 years, we realize: ARCHIE WAS RIGHT!

I am happily working at his new job, with a new fancy title, doing interesting work for people who appreciate it. I'm also living in a tiny apartment with no internet and going home on the weekend to visit the family. The (I hope) final sentencing hearing will be this Thursday. As soon as I get internet back on a regular basis I will look into starting a new blog.

Good news, man. So glad that things are working out for you, on at least some fronts.

If there's a public library where your tiny apartment is located, they typically have free Internet access. There's also a host of free Wi-Fi hotspots around, but beware the spoofed ones who are looking to siphon your account details.

This is the company that left Colorado after our dunderhead legislature and Governor signed passed the law that limited new magazine capacity to 15 or fewer. Magpul said if they can no longer sell their products in the state they are made, they'll just move production to another state that will, instead. Wyoming won, and now the company just inked a huge contract to provide magazines to the USMC, with all the new jobs that come with it.

I knew about the MagPul story. I hope they do well with the contract. I have thought about manufacturing. If I had some extra capital I have a line on some good CNC equip and a possible class III contract.
